I’m having excessive bleeding and irregular periods. I’ve noticed shorter intervals between periods, discomfort after using tampons or having sex, and bleeding through tampons and pads within two hours. I have not taken a pregnancy test. I am about to be 21, have a history of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (dermoids), Endometriosis, Seizures, and Psoriasis. What could be causing this and what should I do?

For a 66-year-old family member who has occasional stomach bloating, why is the doctor recommending a colonoscopy? Her last colonoscopy was in 2018. Does this procedure help?

I was supposed to have periods on May 19 but did not get them. I thought I might be pregnant, but last night I had extreme pain in my abdomen and this morning I had spotting followed by my periods with some gel-like substance. I don't know if this is normal or if I might have had a miscarriage. I had a very faint positive pregnancy test on Wednesday, but a negative test this morning. I am feeling extremely weak and in pain.

When you have a yeast infection, does your entire vagina itch? I have very light discharge with no color, and my lips, clitoris, and everything down there itches. When I wipe myself, there are brown flaky specs. I was prescribed something for the yeast infection, but I'm not sure if it's related. Can you have a yeast infection with no discharge? My gynecologist said she saw discharge inside, so she diagnosed it as a yeast infection, but I've had yeast infections before with discharge.

Is this website trustworthy? I am experiencing pain when urinating, slightly bloody discharge, and deep pelvic pain. I am 22 years old, have had past serious uterine masses, and recently had unprotected and rough sexual intercourse with a new partner.

I am a 32-year-old female with two kids, no medications, and no antibiotics. Four days ago, the day after intercourse, I experienced light spotting that was brownish red and only noticeable when I wiped. This has happened again after recent intercourse. It doesn't hurt and occurs the day after intercourse. I am currently on day 5 of ovulating. Is this normal, and should I be concerned?
